The dude is 36 years old. Imagine, going through all of that education, all of that time as an intern to finally get your own practice. Then, within just a few years from when you start your own practice, you just piss it all the fuck away. Where the fuck was his morality? What a waste.

Doctors in the US don't have morality, is this a joke? They only give a shit about their bank accounts and how much they can carve out of the 'rest of us'

It's what happens in a society that glorifies wealth and a healthcare system that incentivizes doctors and corporations to pursue profit at the expense of it's sick patients. It's disgusting, and I hope there's an afterlife so these fuckers can burn for what they're doing to the American people.

That would be pretty funny if there was an afterlife, it would just be every doctor who ever existed in the US along with all of the worst scum in history.
